In servers, that do not contain X, the gpm is very handy. However, the
gpm process does not need to be started at boot to consume memory at
low mem systems (I have 64M; NFS server). The sysadm can start it
manually when he logs in.

 I suggest to use similar approach as with other daemons:

1. Add /etc/default/gpm with one entry:

    ENABLED="yes"		# or no

2. /etc/init.d/gpm sources this configuration file (pseudo code):

    . /lib/lsb/init-functions

    ...
    ENABLED="yes"		# set default value
    [ -f /etc/default/gpm ] && . /etc/default/gpm

    fi [ ! "$ENABLED" = "yes" ]; then
	log_warning_msg "gpm is disabled by /etc/default/gpm directive (ENABLED=\"$ENABLED\")"
	exit 0
    fi
